My Barking Life is an animal advocacy platform dedicated to telling the stories of those who need it most. We use storytelling and art to help shelter dogs (and sometimes cats) get seen and find their forever homes.

Every dog deserves a fighting chance — especially when the deck has been stacked against them. We use the profits from our art and merchandise sales to sponsor the adoption fees of shelter dogs and help them find their way to new forever homes.​​

At My Barking Life, we believe every dog deserves the chance to succeed — no matter their family’s financial situation.

 

That’s why we've created the Training Assistance Grant (TAG) program to cover the cost of the Foundations First course at Ashton & Co. K9 Academy — made possible by the generosity of our sponsors.
